chris hahn - never far from homesick

'never far from homesick', the latest solo album from so-cal punk veteran chris hahn, who recently re-located to denver, is a propulsive blast of self produced roots-punk with and americana drawl and california beach sneer.

it's an interesting mix of styles. a ska inflected punk tune that involves a banjo, played like a guitar? it works out ok for chris hahn (that's actually my favorite tune..'our last dance'). his employment of the banjo wouldn't please a purist at all, but what's punk about pleasing purists?
